2276 - Creating Extraordinary Characters: A Workshop that Explores Professional Acting Techniques
Course Description
Acting exists only in the presence of an audience when you pretend to be someone other than yourself. Under the direction of SAG actor Ron Barker, you will observe, act out, and critique short scenes that build theatrical techniques and confidence by creating and presenting characters to the class. You will imagine the circumstances in which your assigned lines are to be delivered and a character who needs to say those lines, allowing that character to interact with co-actors, who will be making their own decisions in parallel. Ron will be coaching the class in the use of the basic stagecraft and emotional commitment needed to convince an audience that your make-believe is real.
